She Doesn't Like Kissing

Friday November 6, 2009

From the Lesbian Life Forum:

I recently started dating a girl that I can tell that I am quickly falling for. She's great, we have a lot in common, same sense of humor, the whole bit. The thing that bothers me is that she doesn't enjoy kissing. I am a very affectionate person who loves to kiss. When I bring this issue up, she tells me that I kiss too much. What can I do, if there's anything at all, to help find some common ground? I would hate to see this relationship end because of such a thing. Please help!

When I first started dating my partner she did not like kissing, was hesitant about holding my hand and generally just not affectionate. I, on the other hand, am extremely “touchy feely”. She finally gave in to me and we have been fine ever since. Maybe it will just take some time?

People have different love languages. Some like to hold hands and kiss, while others prefer giving gifts and doing favors for their partner.

Give your partner and yourself more time to discover how you show love to each other and keep your communication lines open. Let your partner warm up to the idea of kissing more, and you to whatever love language she prefers. You two may find a way to compromise in time.
